“…Ag-based electrical contact materials such as AgMeO [ 1 ], AgNi [ 2 ], AgC [ 3 ], AgWC [ 4 ] and AgZrB 2 [ 5 ] are presently among the most widely employed options in the field. Various AgMeO electrical contact materials, including AgCdO [ 6 ], AgSnO 2 [ 7 ], AgZnO [ 8 ], AgZnO 2 [ 9 ], AgCuO [ 10 ], AgY 2 O 3 [ 11 ] and Ag(MgCoNiCuZn)O [ 12 ] have been developed due to their exceptional electrical contact properties, improved resistance to welding and arc erosion, as well as enhanced thermal and electrical conductivity. While AgCdO electrical contact material exhibits remarkable electrical contact properties, its utilization is increasingly limited because of the toxicity of Cd during both production and usage.…”
